Cleveland’s Draft Day Steal: ‘Wise Move’ Revealed for 2025 Draft
The Cleveland Browns have locked in the second overall pick in the upcoming 2025 NFL Draft this April.
Their path to this selection became clear after Saturday’s loss to the Baltimore Ravens secured a top-three spot, which then improved to second overall when the New England Patriots topped the Buffalo Bills on Sunday.
The Tennessee Titans, following their defeat to the Houston Texans, claimed the first overall selection.
ESPN Cleveland analyst Jake Trotter sees a clear strategy for the Browns’ valuable draft position.
“You got so many different needs, left tackle, running back, pass rusher, receiver, that the wise move would be to trade down. And I think they would want to do that,” Trotter explained during a recent segment.
His analysis points to a broader opportunity for the Browns to stack up additional picks, a strategy that aligns with General Manager Andrew Berry’s typical approach to team building.
